Toast???

[jstbcs]

when can babies have it? with/without butter/marg ?

i pretty much gave dd's toast really early, they just used to suck it! didnt usually put any butter on it, too messy

if i did it was butter though, not marg

how early? white/ brown bread?

As soon as they could sit up and hold things i think! Wholemeal toast is better than white because it crumbles more rather than sticking to their palate - more potential for choking on white bread I think (could be talking crap but that's how I feel about it!).

dd's were 6 months before they had anything apart from milk

and i used brown bread but without bitties in it

wholemeal,but not one of those ones with the grainy bits in with butter at the same time as you start weaning (6 months)

bump

with a scraping of Marmite too - DS2 loves it! (I was a Marmite baby BTW )

Yes DS3 loves marmite toast, tend to do wholemeal bread without bits. Cut into fingers and/or tiny tiny squares. Drinks loads afterwards!!!!! He was 7 months when 1st gave him toast.
